If you are going to Japan, YOU CAN’T MISS GOING TO NARA. This place is absolutely magical and has the most adorable welcome greeters! Nara was the first official capital of Japan and is filled with incredible history and tradition. This is also a great place to learn about Japanese culture and food. I would highly recommend trying the local mochi, soba, tempura and of course sushi that is wrapped in persimmon leaf. Hope you enjoy this guide to the city and put it on your Japan itinerary!

The travel health insurance I use – PassportCard Nomads: https://www.passportcardnomads.com/?ref=alinamcleod
*I highly recommend this travel health insurance because you don’t have to pay out of pocket for your medical expenses and they have very reasonably priced long term plans. You can buy the packages for shorter trips as well, but they’re especially fantastic for digital nomads and nomads who want regular health insurance when they are abroad. I am an affiliate of this company, but of course use the plans myself.

Thank you for the video in Nara😊 I guess you enjoyed your stay there!!! Tempura is one of my favorite Japanese foods. I have never been satisfied with Tempura in any other countries. It’s completely different!!!
Hi good morning madam I'm happy to see you still beautiful and healthy GodBless yuo allways madam ✌️ Thaks for sharing this video please regards me to your friend sister Taya please thank you 🙏
Selamat sore mbaku kekasihku.
奈良市の近くに住んでいます。
あまり外国人は行きませんが明日香村がおすすめです。
I guess if there was not youtube; a self promotion, you would gave it up al long time ago 😂
Kusamochi is made by mixing glutinous rice with the leaves of a plant called mugwort, and the inside of kusamochi is adzuki beans. Therefore, matcha is not used in kusamochi. By the way, the yellow powder on the outside of the kusamochi is called soybean flour.
I guess it's illegal to wear blaze orange in Nara.
Have you ever been Indonesia special Komodo Island..?
We were lot of stunning place to Explore..
❤❤❤
Hi Alina
Nice to see you in Japan. I watched you around Brazil in the where I came from. So much nature and food over there. Living here almost 30 years I could say if you ever had a chance to get a car and check the mountains of Nagano you will experience those deers in their wild beautiful home. Not so domesticated like Nara but so purely natural. Close to Nara and Kyoto you can enjoy Kanazawa city, Fantastic old and modern city. Enjoy Your Stay… 😊
和歌山県の高野山もいいですよ。

Your English is very elegant and easy to understand.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I'm thinking Japanese culture is definitely not for me with poor animal treatment, poor choice of animal diet (Octopus, shark, whales), and masks suck too. I do appreciate you catch the historic architecture, quite beautiful. Also, the declining population suggests an unhealthy culture.
I love watching your vlogs. You bring in so much positive vibes. You must visit India and explore its diverse culture and heritage too.
Nara sacred place
so beautiful country
奈良の良さを知らせてくれてうれしいです。奈良の鹿は人が手を加えず、自然の中で1000年以上も生き続けているのです。
youre adorable, arigato gosaimasu
Nice to meet you, I’m a Nara citizen.
It's a familiar landscape for local people, but thank you for introducing us. 😊
Deer(Shika-san)🦌 are always cute. 🥰
I am also looking forward to seeing the landscape videos of Deer(Shika-san)🦌 and other places in Nara that many people have filmed. (I have collected them in my video list. Please take a look if you like.) 😌
It was a great pity that you were not able to climb Mt. Wakakusa.
However, there are two ways to climb to the summit even during the closing period.
One is to take a taxi 🚕 from the city and climb to the top of the mountain. This method does not have a taxi 🚕 on the way home, so you need to have the driver wait for you.☝️
The second method is to walk up the mountain path on the north side of Kasuga Taisha Shrine, and you can reach the summit in about 40 minutes on foot, about 2.5 km from the trailhead. It is a gentle road with no stairs that passes through the "Kasugayama Primeval Forest", so you can enjoy the Japanese temperate forest at your leisure.☝️
The scenery seen from the summit of Mt. Wakakusa can be seen as far as Kyoto, and it is beautiful when the sunset changes to the night view. 🌇
Oops, I forgot to mention one thing. There are also deer (Shika-san)🦌 on the top of the mountain, so if you buy “deer crackers 🍘” in town and bring them with you, you will be very welcome. 😂
Thank you very much. Arigatou-gozaimasu.🤗🍀
OMG! 出来立ての緑色の餅の店「中谷堂/nakatanidou」と柿の葉寿司の店「中谷本舗/nakatanihonpo」は親が兄弟なんですよ😃こんな奇跡的な出来事とても有り得ないです😯

Great to know about NARA
The Best decision I made is choosing You!📇
Hi, very nice adventure from Japan , great views from there and lovely presentation♥
Thank you for your -love -for-Japan video. I'm afraid you might took Chinese music as Japanese music . That sounds awkword .
こんにちわーいつもありがとうございますたいへんーですねーｌｏｓ－ｊａｐｏｎｓｅｓ－ｃａｌｃｔｅｒ－ｆｕｎｄａｍｅｎｔａｌ－ｃｏｍｏ－（ｃｅｒｂｏ）ｄｅｅａｒ－ｅｎｔｏｎｃｅｓ－ｐａｚ（ｆｅｌｉｃｉｄａｄ）？
I like your energy⚡
If I met you in real life I would have approached you and try to hit on you for you to become my wife and future mother of our children.
You would have definitely fell in love thanks to my muscled 34y old sportive looks, my knowledge of 4 languages, most regular job, narcissistic confidence and beautiful eyes.
Unfortunately this luck won't happen to us since we are thousands and thousands miles away from each other. Therefore I'm limiting myself with wishing you good luck and thanking you for the interesting videos!
とても素敵で美しい動画(video)だと思います
Great videos!
In Nara, just feeding the deer is fun😄
